Chapter 2 Gilding Her

Before getting off the car, I learned from Wu Ling that the opportunity to meet the boss was gained by drinking two kilograms of white wine last night.

When it comes to her career, she has always been willing to take risks.

In fact, in the past two years, I have occasionally seen Zhou Hanzhi in financial news, saying that he has a keen eye and has never failed. Especially the case of taking over a large Internet company half a year ago, which made him famous in the entire investment circle.

It is both expected and reasonable that the former financial talent has grown into a celebrity in the capital circle.

That's one of the reasons why he was so popular at the alumni party last night.

Logically speaking, as an ex who is afraid of being in the spotlight, I should avoid him if possible, but looking at the thick foundation on Wu Ling's face, I still went upstairs.

I think, after all, we are a little-known small game studio, and Zhou Hanzhi probably doesn't have the time to receive us in person.

It turned out that my guess was correct.

In the conference room, three brightly dressed leaders sat neatly in a row, patiently listening to my and Wu Ling's explanations.

The whole process of asking questions and answering them took two hours.

One of the persons in charge sent us downstairs, and Wu Ling made an appointment for dinner with him in a familiar manner, while I stood aside and smiled apologetically.

Suddenly, a sweet voice came to my ears , " Senior Meng, is it really you?"

I turned around and saw Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi standing not far away.

Zhou Hanzhi was dressed in a formal suit. The well-cut suit made him look taller and more upright. With his perfect profile and well-defined facial features, he was so handsome that people could not take their eyes off him.

Lin Xixi, who was standing next to him, was wearing a light blue shirt and black trousers, looking childish yet a little cute.

If you look closely, the sapphire cuffs on the man's wrists match Lin Xixi's blue earrings.

They are a perfect match.

If you ignore the flash of displeasure in Zhou Hanzhi's auspicious eyes.

As we got closer, Lin Xixi's curious eyes fell on my face , " Senior Meng, are you here to discuss cooperation?"

Pretty smart.

Wu Ling was smart enough to sense something unusual, took a step forward, stretched out his hand in front of Zhou Hanzhi, and said with a smile , " Mr. Zhou, I have long heard of your name. I often hear about you, and today I am fortunate to meet you in person."

This is Wu Ling's common line, but today, I'm afraid she will be in trouble.

Zhou Hanzhi just glanced at her indifferently, then looked past her and looked at me, sneering , " Really?"

There was obvious sarcasm in his tone.

I think back to how confident I was last night, and feel a little ashamed.

"Senior sisters, you haven't eaten yet, right?" Lin Xixi said enthusiastically, "Our company's food is famous for being good, how about eating before leaving?"

Only then did I realize that Zhou Hanzhi had already arranged Lin Xixi to work in his company.

This is so precious for a senior student who has not yet graduated.

He has protected her like this.

I thought about how in the past, when I shamelessly went to the library to find him, he would only sit opposite me.

As if she was afraid of insulting his image as a beautiful lady.

At that time, I was proud of it and regarded it as an honor.

"No," I tried to find my voice, "We have something else to do later, so I'll leave now."

After saying that, I gave Wu Ling a look, but I saw an expression of disappointment on her face.

After getting in the car, Wu Ling looked at me with a cold face , " Don't you want to explain?"

"He won't vote for us," I sighed, "I don't want you to waste your time."

Wu Ling frowned, hesitated for two seconds, and then opened his mouth and said , " No way, Xuxu, your scumbag ex is... Zhou Hanzhi?"

Finally, I couldn't hide it anymore.

"It's over," Wu Ling concluded, "What if Zhou Hanzhi reads our project proposal..."

Wu Ling and I looked at each other and then realized the seriousness of the problem.

Because in our love game, one of the protagonists, the male genius of the finance department, is a bootlicker.

The kind that no matter how hard you lick it, you can't reach the heroine.

The project prospects are worrying.

Now I just hope that Zhou Hanzhi can take a one-size-fits-all approach and throw the project book into the trash without even looking at it. At least we won’t be labeled as someone who is deliberately looking for trouble.

Given Zhou Hanzhi's current position in the investment circle, if he wants to, we will indeed be unable to move forward.

This is undoubtedly a further blow to us as we are already heavily in debt.

After a peaceful afternoon, Wu Ling and I gradually regained our senses and decided to continue looking for investors.

At nine o'clock in the evening, I returned to my residence with a depressed look on my face. As soon as I got off the elevator, I saw a person from a distance.

The corridor was dim, and the man was leaning on the side with his arms folded. His expression was hidden in the darkness, but a hint of scarlet appeared on his fingertips.

It’s Zhou Hanzhi.

The sensor light lit up, and my eyes met Zhou Hanzhi's in the air.

The air was filled with a choking smell of smoke.

I looked at him and said kindly , " It's a coincidence."

Zhou Hanzhi didn't say anything.

An invisible sense of oppression came over me, and I continued to explain , " We are already looking for other investors, please relax, Mr. Zhou."

I'm not afraid of offending Zhou Hanzhi, but I have to consider the entire company.

Sure enough, after hearing what I said, Zhou Hanzhi's hostility instantly faded a little.

I didn't say anything more and reached out to open the door. The next second, I heard Zhou Hanzhi say , " We can invest in the project."

My hand hesitated, and a strange feeling flashed through my heart unconsciously.

It seems that he has read the project book.

But why?

Zhou Hanzhi has no shortage of big projects. If he really wants to cooperate, he can just contact Wu Ling first. Why should he stand here at the trouble?

I lowered my eyes and wanted to ask, but I didn't know how to start.

I guess it's not that simple.

Sure enough, I heard Zhou Hanzhi say , " But I have a request."

I got it right.

Meeting Zhou Hanzhi's gaze, I politely said , " Mr. Zhou, please speak."

"Xixi needs a project for her graduation project, this game, and I hope she can participate in it."

It turns out that he wanted to use all of our hard work to gild Lin Xixi.

I curled my fingers, then loosened them and said , " I will report to Mr. Wu tomorrow morning."

I am only investing in technology. I cannot reject the olive branch thrown by Zhou Hanzhi because of personal reasons.

Besides, we are short of money.

Very scarce.

As if he didn't expect me to be so calm, Zhou Hanzhi glanced at me indifferently and responded briefly.

Usually, when he shows this expression, it means the conversation is over.

I walked in tactfully without saying another word.

Outside the door, the footsteps gradually faded away. I squatted down and buried my face in my knees.

The next morning, I informed Wu Ling that Rongyu Capital was willing to invest.

Wu Ling was completely stunned, and after a while he said , " A scumbag's network of contacts is also a network of contacts."

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then I mentioned Zhou Hanzhi's request. Wu Ling patted my shoulder after listening and comforted me , " Think about the 208-square-meter apartment, and think about the male models in the club. You have to take the money."

I nodded pragmatically , " The duck in your mouth should be eaten."

So Wu Ling and I came to Rongyu Group again.

This time, the front desk took us to the president's office on the top floor.

Before pushing the door open, I vaguely heard a girl's laughter as clear as a copper bell. Looking up, I saw Lin Xixi sitting obediently next to Zhou Hanzhi, laughing wantonly.

When she saw us coming in, she immediately distanced herself from Zhou Hanzhi and said shyly , " I'll go out first."

"No need," Zhou Hanzhi stopped her, his eyes fell on Wu Ling and me, and said , " Say hello to your new colleague."

"New...new colleague?" There was a flash of surprise in her almond-shaped eyes, and then she was filled with grievance. Lin Xixi whispered , " Senior, do you think I'm stupid?"

"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Hanzhi responded in a gentle voice . " Aren't you worried about having no ideas for your graduation project? Now I have one."

Lin Xixi raised her head, looking confused.

Wu Ling stretched out her hand just right and said , " Yes, Ms. Lin, welcome to join the "Love Story" family."

Lin Xixi looked at Zhou Hanzhi with joy, and said with mixed feelings , " Senior, you are so kind to me."

It can be seen that the little girl was deeply touched by this unexpected surprise.

I was quite surprised too.

Looking back on the past six years, I have created many surprises for Zhou Hanzhi, such as anniversaries, birthday parties, etc., and I never get tired of it.

Now, he is on the right track.

It’s just that Zhou Han’s contradictory behavior makes me a little confused, but in the face of money, these are not worth mentioning.

Zhou Hanzhi invested five million.
